HH is going to be very, very good I believe i would think Copperas Cove would not finish last when they return 8 on both sides of the ball. And Temple lost everyone To Graduation

I wish we played Heights in non-district, it feels weird that Shoemaker isn’t playing them. Would’ve been a great game. But yeah they’re gonna be fine, sure they’ll miss Sanford but the QB and their top 3 receivers are back so they’ll probably be more of a passing team now especially with the new HC.
Cove’s slowly putting it together, I like their coach and they have some talent on offense, but they gotta get the defense & the QB situation right. Temple’s gonna be interesting, not a lot of starters coming back but I just know they got some young talent waiting in the wings.

Any one of these 7 teams could be a playoff team..it’s not often you can say that about a district. I think Heights may show how good of a team they’ve been and that it wasn’t just about Sanford running wild on everyone the past few seasons.

That will be a good game again.

Bryan by 17 Georgetown by 14+ Mansfield by 10 Hutto by 3 Harker Heights by 31 Round Rock by 3 Temple by 14 In all honesty it would not Surprise be if Boyd beat Temple. Temple has very little coming back and I just wonder if it may take a little time for them to get things right.

I just think after a 7-4 season last year I expect Temple to be back to a more normal, tough team this year

Still expect them to finish at or near the top of the district.

The problem with Cove is they are being depleted of their talent pool more and more. They have kids leaving for Lampassas, Shoemaker, Gatesville, and a few other area schools. They have been declining for years, and now battle it out with cellar dwelling programs to not be the suckiest. Even with all the new construction and such in Cove, the athletic kids are going elsewhere. The once proud and mighty Bulldawg program is a shell of itself. The new coach is trying to get it fixed, but until kids come back or at least stop leaving, he's fighting an uphill battle.
As for Temple, they are starting to feel the effects of giving up so much of Temple city limits to Belton ISD. Lake Belton is a force, and so kids want to move there. They lost a lot of kids, but from what I understand from my buddies that work there, they have some pretty good young replacements this season. They will not be completely dominant like the past in district, but they're going to be pretty good.
Harker Heights will be interesting this year. They have improved every year, and with new coaches, I look for a slight drop off from last season early on, but look for them to start really clicking a few games into the season.

Yeah I think Heights is gonna be just fine this season LOL Either Ellison is somewhat improved, or Harker Heights defense fell off a bit. The fact that Ellison scored 13 surprised me. That could be a good sign for the Eagles...
